Geothermal is a renewable energy, because it is from the heat produced by the earth. The earth gets heat from the sun, which will be there for the next million of years. Geothermal has benefits, because if we harness the use of it, instead of mining out all of our coal and oil, we can use this for a long run, and only leave non-renewable energy resources for backup. However, there are consequences to communities and surroundings. The geothermal only benefits when the earth is warm. When the earth becomes too warm, we wouldn't even need the energy anymore cuz everythings dead. So we can use this, but overall we must try to lower the amount of resources that produce this thing as possible.. ( use other renewable energy)

hope this helps

Yes, Geothermal energy is a renewable source.

Explanation:

Geothermal energy is a renewable source because its source is generated unlimited amount of heat by the earth core. It is a sustainable energy source. It is also a non-renewable source because it can be re-used multiple times again and again and looses its ability to create energy.

It is the excellent energy for the meetings, because it opposes to other renewable sources such as wind and solar energy. Great for heating and cooling and used in even small households can benefit. Geothermal energy has been used for thousand of years in some countries like turkey, unites states, new zealand and japan for heating and cooling. It cost less fluctuation and stable electricity prizes.

Yes, its consequences is very bad to communities or surrounding environments because it involves no combustion. So, the level of air pollutants they emit are low. It emits 97% low acid rain which causing sulfur compounds and 82% of green house gases.

How do temperature and salinity affect deepwater currents? they create changes in wind direction, moving denser water in the same direction as the wind and causing the deepwater circulation patterns found in the ocean. as temperatures and salinity levels of water increase, the water rises to the surface where it creates currents as it moves to colder regions. they create density differences that cause dense deepwater currents to flow toward the equator where they displace less dense, warmer water above them. they equalize the forces on undersea currents caused by the coriolis effect as they replace more dense water with less dense water.
